Title: Few questions about 97-03 f-150s. Post by: Cory1020 on June 24, 2007, 11:51:41 AM How reliable are the f-150s? Looking at a 97 4x4 with the 4.6 v8 and automatic. Are these generally good trucks? The one Im looking at has 230,000 miles but he is asking $3000. The rear end is recent and so are the speakers. Is there anything I should look out for on this particular model truck? Any help would be appreciated. Thanks

Thats what I was thinking too !!!230,000 on a gas f150, I dont know about that motor in particular. But if it had the 300 straight 6cyl, I wouldnt worry at allTitle: Re: Few questions about 97-03 f-150s. Post by: greenmachine on June 24, 2007, 03:34:49 PM I put a new tranny in mine at 113,000.

Gear decently @ 60-65 mph. I can't complain in the slightest. Until a Super Duty will fit into the budget again this will have to do. Title: Re: Few questions about 97-03 f-150s. Post by: shirah86 on June 25, 2007, 11:39:27 AM should be alright the only thing i hate is the 4.6's
